What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Nissan Sentra
| Price of the Nissan Sentra: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD |
Car was priced at $13,999 making payments under $200 a month. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 177-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD |
We lease for $250 a month for 24 months and 15,000 miles per year with only $500 down. Payments include tax. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD |
VERY inexpensive to own & maintain |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
They were pretty darned inexpensive new, and downright cheap used. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Paid $14,000 |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Price was not bad when I got it for the indicated performance(things are changing now that other manufacturers are getting better and cheaper) |
| Price of the Nissan Sentra: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD |
I think this car is slightly overpriced. Though depending on when and where you buy, there is potential for a good deal. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD |
To get the essential features, you are forced to buy overpriced bundles with trivial value features. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
seems like for 25k fully loaded yu shld get leather and a little bit more thoughtfully tuned suspension |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Toyota Camry
| Price of the Toyota Camry: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
It was lease takeover. $149mo. for 11 months with a $13.3 buyout/resell |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
One of the biggest reasons for buying the Camry is that Toyota offers a disability reinbursment where they will pay for adaptive equipment added to the car. Now my wife will be able to drive. The Altima did not offer this. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The 2007 Camry SE V6 is a great compromise between luxury, performance and affordability. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 157-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
This car was a Hertz rental car. It was a very good price with a good warranty. |
| Price of the Toyota Camry: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Why pay more for less????? |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
If I have to get same features on Camry (which I got on accord), I have to spend above 30k + APR also will be high. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Expensive |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Dealer was not willing to deal oter than cursory reductions. DId not want to "Open Book" pricing and discounts, tried to hide them in "lease" payments |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Price too high and dealer would not deal. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 187-horsepower 2.4L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Too expensive a premium for hybrid. They come stripped or loaded (mostly loaded) with nothing in between. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
I was able to get a much better deal on the Accord. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 187-horsepower 2.4L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
~$30,000 |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Dealership would not negotiate. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
higher price for less features |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 192-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
The price is higher than comparable models and my payments were over $500 a month on a 60 month loan. |
